    Kinda bummed Boogie is getting so few minutes. I wonder if he’ll get more play when we play post-up centers.

    When the kings hit every shot we are playing bad defense, when they miss every shot because they’re well contested, the kings suck.
    It’s really simple ;)

    It has nothing to do with your happiness or sadness.

    It’s about the base of your judgement regarding ‘the team isn't futile without Harden.’

    Wall is a better defender right now. He is 6'4 with a 6'9 wingspan. I will roll with that over a 35 year old.

    Gotta ease boogie back. Big body with knee and Achilles injuries can’t take a chance. He’ll get his minutes up after all star break,

    True that. Overlooked that a bit.

    As long as Walton continues to have them play at a frenetic pace, they are going to cause problems for teams like they did two seasons ago.

    Bro u criticized a player's (wall) shooting efficiency using +/-. I showed that u were using it incorrectly like a dumbass.

    If u are gonna criticized someone, at least back it up with some numbers that actually applies.

    Using your logic of +/- to gauge if a player can shoot.

    Eric Gordon at 7/18 (33% overall) should keep chucking five feet away from the 3 point line b/c he was +/- +11

    while John Wall at 11/21 (52% overall) should stop shooting because he's at +/- -4

    meanwhile House 1/4 (25% overall) should keep whiffing 3 pointers because he's at +/- +14.
    Imagine using this logic when talking to other sport fans.

    Cousins would have played more today if he hadn’t received three first-half fouls. As it was, he played at least two-thirds of the third quarter once Wood was called for his fifth foul.

    John Wall is and always was a gamer. His confidence and swag will be contagious.

    Nwaba and Tate are like two loose pit bulls out there. They were a reason the Kings broke down offensively. Great win. Just going to get better as we improve. Love it!
